The long-standing partnership with the Tour de France has been extended, prolonging a historic collaboration that will soon span 50 years, driven by a shared ambition for innovation and sustainable transition 

XPO Logistics, a leading provider of innovative and sustainable end-to-end logistics solutions across Europe, and the world-famous cycling competition Tour de France, have  announced the extension of their historic partnership. For this 112ᵉ edition, which will take place from 5 to 27 July 2025, XPO Logistics is once again deploying outstanding logistics to ensure the success of the world´s most closely followed cycling event, every step of the way. From Lille to the Champs-Élysées, 58 drivers are preparing to cover 3,340 kilometres, across 34 départements and 11 regions. Both on the road and behind the scenes, XPO Logistics' human and technical resources are making the Tour a true demonstration of know-how and adaptability. Ahead of each stage, the XPO Logistics teams install the key infrastructure (start village modules, podiums, arches, barriers, technical equipment, sports points, etc.) with pinpoint accuracy, in record time, whatever the terrain or weather conditions. 

The same expertise will be deployed from 26 July to 3 August 2025 by a team dedicated this time to the Tour de France Femmes with Zwift, for which XPO Logistics has been the official carrier since its creation in 2022.

Concrete commitments to more responsible logistics

A pioneer in more sustainable transport, XPO Logistics is continuing to roll out its LESS® HVO solution in 2025, based on the use of HVO biofuel injected into its fuel tanks network. This biofuel reduces CO₂ emissions by up to 90%. Last year, 223,370 kg of CO₂ were avoided thanks to this solution. The vehicles meet Euro 6 standards, limiting nitrogen oxide emissions by up to 70%. This initiative will be deployed on both the Tour de France and the Women's Tour de France with Zwift, reflecting a shared commitment with Amaury Sport Organisation (A.S.O.) to increasingly responsible competition.

A well-oiled machine, year after year

Logistical preparations starting in October, rigorous selection of drivers, on-board safety equipment. Each day of the race requires meticulous organisation:

• Setting up the start villages and finish lines in 4 to 5 hours
• Intermediate points set up in 3 hours
• Dismantling in just a few hours before transfer to the next stage.

This agility is made possible in particular thanks to the expertise and experience of the drivers, who are true masters of the road, capable of transporting equipment in their heavy goods vehicles even in extreme conditions and on the narrowest mountain passes. 
  
It is also made possible by XPO Logistics' national network of agencies that can respond to all urgent requests, even in mountainous terrain. In addition to the Tour de France and the Women's Tour de France with Zwift, XPO Logistics is the official carrier for twelve other major cycling events organised by A.S.O. Paris-Nice, Paris-Nice Challenge, Paris-Roubaix, Paris-Roubaix Femmes avec Zwift, Paris-Roubaix Challenge, La Flèche Wallonne, La Flèche Wallonne Femmes, Liège-Bastogne-Liège, Liège-Bastogne-Liège Femmes, Critérium du Dauphiné, L'Étape du Tour de France, Paris-Tours. 
 
Thomas Cariou, CSR Director at Amaury Sport Organisation (A.S.O.), said: "The Tour de France is a living laboratory for the environmental transition of major sporting events. With partners such as XPO Logistics, who share our ambition to reduce the race's carbon footprint, we are taking new steps every year towards a more responsible Tour. The rollout of HVO biofuel across the entire logistics convoy is a concrete example of this commitment to working towards a more sustainable future." 
 
Luis Gómez, President – Europe, XPO Logistics, commented: "We’re honoured to extend our Official Transport Partner role through to 2030, as we approach the milestone of 50 years of partnership. This long-standing collaboration reflects our shared commitment to operational excellence, innovation and sustainability. I’m particularly pleased to confirm the continuation of this journey, and we remain fully dedicated to bringing the same level of passion, precision and care to both the Tour de France and the Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift." 
 
Bruno Kloeckner, Managing Director - France, XPO Logistics, added: "The Tour is much more than a logistical challenge: it's an honour and a source of great pride for our teams. For more than 45 years, we have shared with the Tour de France teams the same commitment to excellence, innovation and responsibility. This long-standing partnership embodies our values and our ability to support major events in their sustainable transformation.”
